About the Game

Man vs. Machine

Roguelite. Horde Survival. Squad-Builder.

In a world threatened by evil M.E.G.A. Corp.’s private robot army, the last bastion of hope for mankind is a bunch of armed lunatics who signed up for a mercenary job.

Who's better to lead them than a disposable clone with an unpredictable set of special traits? Welcome to your new assignment, Commander.

Take the battle to the enemy and build your underfunded, over-ambitious outfit into an apocalyptic war machine that rids the world of evil billionaire overlords.

With all chances stacked against your rebellious operation, this isn’t about glory. This is about the loot!

Every Commander clone is created from a set of randomly selected traits. Can you lead your squad to victory with a hawk-eyed, sly Infiltrator? Or take on the enemy alone with a nocturnal, greedy One-Man Army? How about a brilliant, vampiric Ninja?

Each combination of traits yields a unique run with its own set of challenges, mechanics, and surprising synergies.

Equip your favorite weapon and unleash the havoc! But first, you need a squad:

Assemble your team of mercenaries from a roster of vigorous fighters. Each Merc totes their own arsenal and tactics to tackle the horde.

Recruit the right Mercs into your squad for each operation, supercharge their combat effectiveness by specializing in complex skill trees, and leverage their synergies with hi-tech Gear to build a game-breaking, horde-slaying killer squad.

Navigate a variety of procedurally generated maps in each operation. Capture objectives to call in reinforcements or sack valuable loot.

Strike hard and fast! The clock is ticking. Each minute wasted on the battlefield is punished with more and stronger enemies.

Call in your extraction point and defend it to make it out alive! Or survive long enough to face dangerous bosses and their underlings.

But beware: it's all or nothing! Die and lose your loot. Or survive and take home your spoils of war to come back even stronger!

Invest your loot to hire new Mercs, purchase new Gear, expand your bunker HQ for powerful upgrades, or research new traits & weapons for your Commander clones.

Direct your squad with tactical abilities or fight actively in the battle – each Commander clone and loadout offers a completely different play style.

Experiment and find your optimal squad build for any challenge the procedural maps may offer. No two runs will ever be the same!

  • Control a Commander clone, generated from 3 random Traits, with over 15,000 unique combinations

  • Lead your squad with actively controlled weapons and many different active & passive abilities

  • Build your squad from a large variety of Mercs with unique skill trees & specializations

  • Select from dozens of Gear items to modify and improve your squad

  • Conduct your Operations on distinct, procedural Maps with different mission parameters, difficulty, and unique Bosses

  • Upgrade your Bunker HQ in between Operations with the loot you’ve scavenged

  • Full support for controllers and keyboard/mouse input

  • Stream the game with Twitch integration and let your audience decide your fate

  • Play on SteamDeck, full compatibility verified
